She was asked not to go to the gala in the evening, wasn’t she, because it would have created a security nightmare? Anyhoo, I looked at the photos of the attendees on NRO, and it looked liked a liberal, pro-Obama event. I wondered if Republican socialites and celibs were not invited.

Yesterday, we received a notice that our street will be closed from 4:00 p.m. until 11:00 p.m. today while the Messiah is in Century City and then a private fundraiser a short distance away.
He is the ONLY president who has ever closed down streets, other than those immediately surrounding their appearances. It’s unprecedented.
Something new has been added: buses won’t be running during certain rush hours on the Westside – what a jackass!
Yours truly will be waiting for him in front of the house with a huge poster – YOU LIED; FOUR BRAVE AMERICANS DIED!

Thanks guys! My daughter is an art teacher at a school nearby. She just volunteered to make a couple more posters and bring large easels to display them on the curb, lol. This is really going to be fun! We will make sure he notices us, lol.

Speaking of Dear Leader… I have looked for a clip I saw and can’t find it anywhere. Maybe I imagined it… It was on The Five on Monday. Eric Bolling was showing photos from the correspondents dinner (featuring himself of course)… but at one point, he shows a short video of Obama sitting at the head table, apparently joking around with someone in the crowd sitting not far from him. He was holding a finger to one side of his nose and and blowing (likes kids do with, um, boogers… sorry!) I kept thinking, this is the leader of our country. Does he not know everything he does is filmed?? Would share it with you, but cannot find hide nor hare of it. Scrubbed from the universe evidently.

It was soooo disgusting! And he did it not just once, but 2-3 x.
Haven’t seen the photo, but CSPAN probably has it on their website. I have it on DVR. He must have been ‘high’; either that, or he is an insufferable boor.

Went outside @ 3:30 to set up table, chairs and posters to greet Obama upon his arrival to our fair city.
Instead, I was greeted with yellow crime tape stretched across my driveway, dozens of LAPD officers patroling the deserted street, police squad cars everywhere, and sharpshooters on rooftops.

I was immediately accosted by several police officers and questioned about my poster – YOU LIED! FOUR BRAVE AMERICANS DIED.
i had to go back inside the house to get ID to show the officers. Thought I was going to be arrested! Instead, I was told to take my poster to a designated ‘protester area’ which is several blocks away, far from Obama’s route. I decided against it – why bother. Obama won’t see it.

It is now 5:35 and the motorcade is expected momentarily. Unfortunately, the yellow crime tape won’t be removed until 11:00 p.m. Hubby is going to have to park his car several blocks away and walk home, along with all the other residents in the area. We are all captives.
The postman was not even allowed to drive his vehicle through the neighborhood today! No mail!
This is the first time the homes on my block have been sealed with yellow tape. Normally, there are barriers at the corner and residents have to show ID to pass through. This is a quiet residential area, which makes it even more bizarre. Methinks there must be serious threats against the Prez.
Will give it another try tomorrow when Obama is on his way out of the city.
